Planting tweezers often make planting small stems and other plants easier than using your hands. They allow you to get plants deeper into the substrate so plants can absorb nutrients and form a strong root structure. These particular tweezers are curved at the end to get plants into even the smallest spaces and for more control while planting at an angle. This is especially useful if you have a deep tank.
Makes Planting Easy
We chose these 10.5-inch stainless tweezers because of the nice angle at the end. This allows you to firmly grab stem plants, cryptocorynes, and swords and plant them as deeply as needed into the substrate. Why use your fingers to create a giant crater when you can use these thin, precision tips to create a hole just small enough for the plant without disturbing the surrounding area?
Perfect for Root Tabs
If your root-feeding plants are turning yellow, make sure to add some Easy Root Tabs. Use these tweezers to insert them directly under and around the plant to make sure they get plenty of nutrients right where they need it.
Love these tweezers… should have added these a long time ago. Getting ready to pick up the scissors.

Got them to set up my aquarium and also help clean the tank. Worked well and were very maneuverable.

Angled Planting Tweezers
Work well for planting and placing root tabs. I bought a second pair to use for my tank at work.

These have been very helpful for planting out plants in the substrate. I would buy them again.

Helpful!
These are so nice to be able to plant thin aquatic plants and grab shrimp sheds. On certain plants it's not great, ie. dwarf onion and large clumps of dwarf hair grass, but overall really helpful.
